Lenkey Túlélő 2.0 2014

Some wines tell a story. This one earned its name.
Túlélő 2.0 (“Survivor”) comes from the tough 2014 vintage, when only 10% of Lenkey’s fruit made the cut. The rest didn’t stand a chance. Géza gathered the best parcels and crafted a blend of 65% Furmint and 35% Hárslevelű.

After 48 months in old Hungarian oak and 40 months in bottle, the wine emerged rich, calm, and beautifully complex: apricot skin, lavender, hay, wax, and a bright herbal lift. The volcanic soils of Tokaj bring the signature firm, salty minerality that carries the finish.
